New Gameplay Trailer
The 14-minute gameplay trailer released for Hogwarts Legacy shows how extensive the game will be. In addition to general features, there was the vast open world to see, the combat system and insights into the lessons.
The Gameplay of Hogwarts Legacy
In Hogwarts Legacy you play an as yet unknown wizard who is a kind of late bloomer. For the first time he visits Hogwarts only in the fifth grade. One of the most important elements of the game is the development of your magical skills. In addition to the lessons, your explorations of the castle and the surrounding area will help you. But brewing potions and duelling with classmates are also an integral part of your school year.
The comprehensive talent system includes classic attributes and skills, but also a kind of "old magic". This old magic is extremely powerful and you will learn to master it during the course of the game.
The "Room of Requirements" serves as your starting point for your exploration tours. There you can work on your magical skills, cultivate useful plants, improve your equipment and, of course, also brew potions.
Explore Hogwarts
For most fans, exploring Hogwarts and its surroundings is at the top of the list. Fortunately, in addition to the castle itself, the developer has also included almost all relevant places from the movies and books in the game.
You can explore many more known and unknown places besides Hogsmead, the Black Lake and the Forbidden Forest. In addition to new quests, you will also find many secrets about the world of wizards there.
